Academy Award nominee and three-time Emmy Award nominee James Cromwell, Alan Mandell and Barry McGovern opened in Mark Taper Forum's new production of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot March 21.

The cast includes Hugo Armstrong and LJ Benet in addition to Cromwell, Mandell and McGovern.

According to CTG, Waiting for Godot follows "two days in the lives of a pair of characters, Estragon and Vladimir, whose apparent purpose in life is to wait by the side of the road for someone named Godot to arrive. This simple act, at once seemingly futile and hopeful, asks basic questions of human existence, why we are here and what is our ultimate destiny."
